Reversible embrittlement in zircaloy-2

  • 1. Leeds Univ. (UK)

Description

Stress corrosion cracking in zircaloy-2 at room temperature has been reported by several authors who have observed cracking in Hg, CH3OH/I2, CH3OH/HCl and aqueous NaCl. In the course of an extensive study of stress corrosion cracking in the zircaloy-2/CH3OH/HCl system a reversible embrittlement attributable to absorbed hydrogen has been observed and is reported.
